Chapter 1239: Bai Zhun's Disappointment

If it were any other time, Gu Rou would definitely agree.

However, she was smart for knowing when to stop.

This was also why sometimes Gu Rou avoided mentioning Bai Zhun when she talked. She knew Bai Zhun didn't like being provoked.

Fortunately, Gu Cheng did not know anything. He thought that she and Bai Zhun were really together and helped her quietly.

But at the same time, Gu Rou knew very well that if she went too far with certain things, the gains would not make up for the losses.

"What are we eating? Let's avoid them. Let's go shopping for a while. You guys can accompany me to pick out a gift for tomorrow."

The girl suddenly understood when she heard that. "I was wondering why you dragged us out shopping today. So you want to buy a birthday gift for Bai Zhun! You're buying it in secret just to give him a surprise?"

Gu Rou smiled. "Of course, birthday presents should be kept a secret."

"Gu Rou, bring us to his birthday party too, won't you? Xiaoqing is Hailou's girlfriend anyway, so Bai Zhun shouldn't mind."

Gu Rou patted her hand. "We definitely have to invite you guys. For this, we've even arranged a small private party so that we can have fun together!"

"We?" The girl laughed. "Gu Rou, could it be that you and Bai Zhun planned this birthday party together?"

Gu Rou nudged her. "You're talking nonsense again. My grandfather and Bai Zhun's grandfather are old friends. Grandpa will be staying at the Bai house for the next two days because he wants to meet up with his old friends. Bai Zhun's coming of age ceremony is no small matter, so my grandfather came up with the idea. How can I make such a decision?"

"Did I hear you wrongly?! You're actually staying at his house?!" The girl nudged her. "Tell me honestly, did anything happen between the two of you?"

Gu Rou blushed and did not say anything. She was very clear on when the best time to make an expression was.

As for whether or not other people would misunderstand, that had nothing to do with her.

As she expected, the two girls beside her widened their eyes. "Looks like there's progress. Heavens, even though it's you, Gu Rou, but just thinking about that scene makes me so jealous. Bai Zhun has never allowed any girl to get close to him before!"

"Don't ask me anymore. I'm going to buy a gift. Buy a gift!"

The more Gu Rou changed the topic, the more imaginative the two girls became. They giggled as they held Gu Rou's hand. Since they were going to attend Bai Zhun's birthday party, it was definitely not good to go empty-handed. They had to pick out some gifts too!

Across the road, Bai Zhun had already bought the buns. It was only when he entered the school that he remembered that Ajiu had sent him a message this morning, saying that she would settle lunch herself this afternoon.

He had just acted based on his instinct. He only focused on buying something she liked and completely forgot that she had sent him this message earlier.
